Jameel Laboo was born July 13, 1983 in Newark, New Jersey. As the second oldest of his moms six kids and the fourth oldest of his fathers eight, he struggled to express his feelings without being judged. Growing up under poor conditions was the life he was faced with and he was longing for some relief. Writing poetry was the beginning of his creative journey releasing his feelings in a way many would'nt understand. That was up until he heard the late Tupac Shakur. After that his poetry turned into rap lyrics. Becoming more comfortable with his music, he began entering many local showcases, quickly becoming a local celebrity. In every song you heard his pain and his desire to want more out of life. Sadly, his career took a turn for the worse. Jameel was incarcerated due to engaging in the "street life" activities. His time in prison wasn't long, but being in trouble became repetitive. Even going through his trials, his vision was still positive. While others felt they were stuck, he always knew there was a way out. He lived by the motto, "Just because I came from the bottom, doesn't mean I have to stay there". Welcoming the birth of his first child was all the motivation he needed and more. Being raised with his father in and out of prison, Jameel was determined to break that cycle. He ventured off into different businesses, as well as adding acting and writing scripts to his resume. All while still pursuing his music career. Now going by the name "C.h.a.o.s." (Creating Happiness After One Suffers), his goal was to change the negative mind state of many who surrounded him. In a effort to become the voice he desires to be, Jameel wrote his first motivational book called "Signs". Aiming to help kids going through anxiety and depression. Telling his own personal story to gain others trust with theirs. Showing them that we all can win as long as it's in our hearts. Not by luck but by being genuine. Most of all constantly preaching that if we become contagious with good energy, it'll spread long past our physical existence.
